Astha Ramaiya [Co-author] Shared the Journal Article - Published in Child Abuse & Neglect, June 2026
A new systematic review published in Child Abuse & Neglect examined the link between mental health and technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Analysing 10 studies with over 25,000 participants across seven countries, researchers found that depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and prior trauma were consistently associated with victimisation. Crucially, the relationship appears bidirectional with mental health difficulties both preceding and resulting from exploitation; creating potential cycles of repeated harm. Perhaps most striking: traditional parental monitoring through technological surveillance showed limited protective effects. What actually mattered? The quality of parent-child relationships including, open communication, emotional warmth, and trust. The findings suggest prevention efforts should combine universal school-based programmes building emotional resilience with targeted support for high-risk youth, while parent education should prioritise connection over control. With 12.5% of children globally experiencing online solicitation annually, understanding these psychological pathways is essential for effective child protection.

The Challenge and Potential of Being Women Evaluator, Asia Context
Dear all,
In 2009 Indonesian Development Evaluation Community (InDEC) was formed.
After five years getting the national and international recognition through series of M&E activities. Ten InDEC women members are now taking the initiative to take a closer look at the outreach and advocacy role of women evaluators in Asia, or who have a closeness with the evaluation context of Asia.
As a first step in developing an outreach and advocacy strategy for female evaluators, we want to hear and learn from female evaluators -- and male evaluators -- in Indonesia and in the Asia region about the challenges and potential of being female evaluators face in their work environments.
If you are male evaluator, we wish to hear your observation, stories, or experience of having women evaluator in your working environment, to have them as a team member, to work for or with them, or anything you think we need to know!
Therefore, if you have some time, you are invited to fill out the online mapping sheet at the following link http://bit.ly/MappingTool
The online survey is in English.
On behalf of InDEC, thank you in advance for your participation!
